My Ability Pool is Superior-Chapter 52 - 51: Crushing All Opposition

The motto shouted by the Death Fighters of the Investigation Corps echoed thunderously, but in reality, no one moved immediately.

Clearly, once they realized the "Node" was with Lv Bai, these members of the Investigation Corps couldn’t help having some personal calculations in mind.

After all, everyone was a mere acquaintance, only gathered together because of Duan Jianhui’s influence.

And Duan Jianhui’s influence was based on his formidable and mysterious ability group.

Simply put, it was because he was powerful, so people gathered around him.

Under such circumstances, expecting them to have a strong sense of belonging to the Investigation Corps would be foolish.

So, when they realized someone successfully snatched the "Node" from Duan Jianhui, naturally their first thought was about their own interests.

They hadn’t broken up on the spot mainly because no one had taken the lead, and secondly, they were hoping to see if they could seize the "Node" amidst the chaos.

Lv Bai quickly counted; there were six Death Fighters in the corridor, judging by their appearance, they were mostly young people.

Each of these young individuals stared tensely at him, while also subtly observing their teammates’ movements.

"What are you waiting for?" Lv Bai urged casually.

"Being too arrogant won’t lead to a long life."

A young man with long hair retorted sarcastically, still without taking any action, his strategic composure was full.

"Since you won’t make a move..."

Lv Bai slowly raised the Eight-sided Han Sword, a hint of a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth: "Then I’ll have to put in some effort."

To the others there, his words sounded like a reminder.

The long-haired man immediately activated his ability, his entire body enveloped in a metallic sheen.

[Iron Block (Gold): Strength is pushed into the solid body, tightening all muscles to give them iron-like hardness. However, when this ability is activated, movement is not possible.]

Bang! Bang!

Lv Bai’s movements were too fast to follow; only two successive metal collision sounds could be heard.

The long-haired man slid several meters backward under the impact of the violent force, leaving two scrape marks in the corridor with his legs.

Though somewhat unexpected, the other Death Fighters present weren’t idle either.

Two Death Fighters with firearms immediately aimed and repeatedly fired at Lv Bai.

It should be noted that this did not mean they intended to fight Lv Bai desperately; essentially, it was just a slightly excessive probe.

In the eyes of these Death Fighters, if the opponent could completely ignore firearms to some extent, they would undoubtedly turn around and flee.

Nevertheless, Lv Bai’s response left them feeling conflicted.

Facing dense bullets, Lv Bai swiftly dodged left and right, appearing behind the long-haired man after sustaining two non-debilitating gun wounds, using this humanoid iron shield as cover.

This situation put the Death Fighters in a tough spot.

The opponent moves extremely fast, clearly stronger than most Death Fighters, but facing such a formidable guy is rather dangerous.

However, to simply abandon the "Node" and flee feels quite unsatisfactory.

After all, the opponent still appears human, vulnerable to conventional firepower, suggesting a chance to take him down.

Too conflicting.

This resulted in a bizarre scenario where, aside from the two Death Fighters with automatic rifles continuously shooting, the others stood hesitantly.

Lv Bai didn’t care about their mental conflicts; he simply lifted the long-haired man with his left hand and charged toward the two gun-wielding Death Fighters.

"Stop just watching!"

Eventually, there were still clever ones among them; when they realized Lv Bai’s intent, a man with claws extending wolf-like stood up to block him.

Seeing this, Lv Bai swung his sword silently across.

Bang!

A piercing humming sound followed, with the Eight-sided Han Sword clashing against the claws.

"Gotcha!" Lv Bai even had the mood to joke.

Before the words could finish, he lunged forward and slammed the long-haired man in Iron Block state massively using him as a shield.

Thud~

A souring dull sound reverberated in the corridor.

The man with claws got hurled back like hit by a truck, only stopping after smashing onto the corridor wall.

After swiftly dealing with the obstructing fighter, Lv Bai continued carrying the long-haired man forward.

However, after a bit of delay, the remaining two Death Fighters finally made up their minds and simultaneously charged toward Lv Bai.

To tell the truth, every Death Fighter Lv Bai encountered possessed fundamental combat skills.

They knew how to exert force and target vital human parts, capable of holding their own against three to four ordinary people at least.

Yet now, they could only passively take hits.

The stark gap in physical prowess made it impossible, as Lv Bai’s simple power overcame various skills.

Crunch!

A crisp sound of bone dislocating rang clearly.

The arm of one Death Fighter got bent into an exaggerated angle, with bone piercing through the skin and exposed to the air.

They couldn’t even scream before being directly slain by a subsequent sword strike.

"What...what the hell is this monster?!"

Witnessing this, the two Death Fighters sniping from behind immediately started having second thoughts.

This stark difference in physical capability, as if Lv Bai chose three power-boosting abilities, was beyond them.

Lv Bai felt increasingly pleased with the combat.

Facing Duan Jianhui before this, all the effort went into hitting thin air, nothing compared to slicing through like ripe fruit now.

In a blink, the two Death Fighters fell in succession.

The clawed Death Fighter still lay on the ground, unable to recover.

The remaining two gun-wielding Death Fighters lamented in silence, their bullets nearly exhausted, trapped in the corridor without an escape path.

Lv Bai showed indifference, using the long-haired man as a shield, quickly closing in.

In the 0.5 seconds of [Flash Time] activation, he swiftly swung twice, dropping two heads in response.

Turning back afterward, he nonchalantly finished off the clawed man with a sword.

It must be admitted, [Flash Time]’s efficiency in close-scale killing was terrifyingly high.

As Lv Bai put down the long-haired man, the corridor fell silent.

The disarrayed corpses and spread blood made the whole scene resemble a horror film set.

[Ding!]

[Points +5, Current Points: 32, Current Ranking 1/31]

"How long are you planning to play dead?"

Lv Bai lifted an amused gaze at the long-haired man, who remained in Iron Block state.

Honestly speaking, if these individuals hadn’t each harbored their intentions from the beginning, Lv Bai might not have won so effortlessly.

For instance, if the long-haired man had canceled [Iron Block] at a crucial moment, Lv Bai would likely have suffered severe damage amidst the dense barrage.

Unfortunately, the long-haired man had no intent to sacrifice himself for the greater good.

Nor did the other Death Fighters, as long as their lives were not in immediate danger.

Bang~ Bang~ Bang~

Lv Bai tapped the sword blade against the long-haired man’s arm.

"That’s enough; how long do you plan on staying like this?"
